Trouble setting up APN

StarrySkies — Tue, 04 Jan 2022 19:33:36 GMT

I have a OnePlus 2 phone and I am having trouble getting my data set up. I have tried following the guide located on this link: (https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Knowledge-Base/Updated-Setting-Up-Data-APN-On-Your-Phone/ta-p/26), but without success. The APN format is the same as Android but with a few extra sections which I have listed below:

APN Protocol:
APN roaming Protocol:
APN enable/disable
Bearer:
MVNO Type:
MVNO value:

I'm not sure if that makes a difference but I was wondering if I should leave it at default settings or something specific. The default settings are currently:

APN Protocol: IPv4
APN roaming Protocol: IPv4
APN enable/disable: N/A
Bearer: unspecified
MVNO Type: None
MVNO value: Not set

Thank you in advance for all the help and tips! 🙂

@StarrySkies

Try these ideas:

Make sure that you are not connected to wifi while attempting to send/receive MMS. The data connection has to be on for MMS to work.
Go back to the phone's APN settings and for "APN type" enter "default,mms,supl" and save. Reboot the phone and test MMS.
If you have multiple APNs listed, ONLY one, the PM one, should have the APN type "default".

So the the complete settings list:

APN: sp.mb.com

Proxy: Unspecified

Port: Unspecified

Username: Unspecified

Password: Unspecified

Server: Unspecified

MMSC: http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mb/mmsc

MMSC proxy: 74.49.0.18

MMS port: 80

MCC: 302

MNC: 220

Authentication type: Unspecified

* APN type: default,mms,supl

* APN roaming Protocol: IPv4

Bearer: Unspecified

MVNO type: GID

MVNO value: 4D4F

Good post. I'm filing this one to my archive.
